The 2000 Sacramento Area Household Travel Survey, like all recent household travel surveys, relied on the willingness of area residents to complete diary records of their daily travel for a specified day. During their travel day, participating household members were asked to record travel information in a travel diary for the specified 24-hour period. The information documented by respondents includes trip activities, mode of transportation, trip times, and trip location. Demographic information includes gender, age, whether the respondent held a valid driver's license, whether the respondent was a student, employment status, household income, whether the respondent owned or rented a home, and household size.

The 2002 Champaign-Urbana-Savoy Travel Survey is a comprehensive study of the demographic and average weekday, local and regional personal travel made by residents of the Champaign-Urbana-Savoy urbanized area. This survey entailed the collection of activity and travel information for all household members. The survey relied on the willingness of regional households to (1) provide demographic information about the household, its members and its vehicles and (2) have all household members record all travel and activity for the travel period, including address information for all locations visited, trip purpose, mode, and travel times. Demographic information includes household size, household income, employment status, and student status.

This special-topic poll is part of a continuing series of
monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a
range of other political and social issues. This data collection
focuses on perceptions of education in the United States. The poll
consisted of interviews with school principals and the general
population. The data are contained in two datasets. Part 1, Principals
Survey, contains data on the number and racial mix of students in the
respondents' schools. Respondents were also questioned about
discipline problems, competency tests, busing to achieve integration,
television and homework, parental involvement in school
decision-making, budget cutbacks, school performance, and their
personal occupational history. Part 2, General Public Survey, contains
information on the respondents' confidence levels in public
institutions, perceived problems in their local high school, the value
of school programs, functions of schools, educational discipline, the
education of their children, and their opinions of President Ronald
Reagan. Demographic information was collected, including respondents'
sex, age, race, occupation, education and income levels, marital
status, number of children, political party identification, and voting
behavior.

The Afrobarometer project was designed to collect and disseminate information regarding Africans' views on democracy, governance, economic reform, civil society, and quality of life. This particular survey was concerned with the attitudes and opinions of the citizens of Mali. Respondents in a face-to-face interview were asked to rate their president and the president's administration in overall performance, to state the most important issues facing their nation, and to evaluate the effectiveness of certain continental and international institutions. Opinions were gathered on the role of the government in improving the economy, whether corruption existed in local and national government, whether government officials were responsive to problems of the general population, and whether local government officials, the police, the courts, the overall criminal justice system, the National Electoral Commission, and the government broadcasting service could be trusted. Respondents were polled on their knowledge of the government, including the identification of government officials, their level of personal involvement in political, governmental, and community affairs, their participation in national elections, and the inclusiveness of the government. Economic questions addressed the past, present, and future of the country's and the respondents' economic conditions, and respondents' living conditions. Additional topics include corruption of religious leaders, possession of pieces of personal identity for proof of citizenship status, the crisis in the schooling system, the rebellion in the North, and decentralization of government structures. Background variables include age, gender, ethnicity, education, religious affiliation and participation, political party affiliation, language spoken most at home, whether the respondent was the head of household, current and past employment status, whether a close friend or relative had died from AIDS, and language used in the interview. In addition, the interviewer's gender, race, and education level is provided.

The Afrobarometer is a comparative series of public attitude surveys that collects and disseminates data regarding Africans' views on democracy, governance, the economy, civil society, and related issues. The data are collected from nationally representative samples in face-to-face interviews in the language of the respondent's choice. Standard topics for the Afrobarometer include attitudes toward and evaluations of democracy, governance and economic conditions, political participation, national identity, and social capital. In addition, Round 5 surveys included special modules on taxation; gender issues; crime, conflict and insecurity; globalization; and social service delivery. The surveys also collect a large set of socio-demographic indicators such as age, gender, education level, poverty level, language and ethnicity, and religious affiliation, as well as political party affiliation. Afrobarometer Round 5 surveys were implemented in 35 countries. This particular data collection was concerned with the attitudes and opinions of the citizens of Ghana, and also includes a number of "country-specific questions," many of which are oil-related, designed specifically for the Ghana survey.

The 2000 Bay Area Travel Survey collected travel information from residents of the nine-county Bay Area for weekday and weekend travel both inside and outside of the region. This survey varies from other household travel surveys in that selected households were asked to record all of their activities for a specific two-day period, rather than complete a 24-hour travel log. Respondents were asked to report detailed information regarding their travel, including trip locations, mode of transportation, trip start and end times, trip purpose, and trip activities. Demographic variables include gender, age, employment status, whether the respondent held a valid driver's license, occupation, whether the respondent was a student, income, education level, ethnicity, and whether the respondent had a disability.

This poll, fielded May 30-June 2, 1990, is part of a
continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on
the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues.
The focus of this data collection was the educational system in the
United States. Respondents were asked to list the most important
problems facing the country, and were then asked whether President
George H.W. Bush had made any progress in improving education and
whether they trusted him to make the right decisions regarding this
issue. A series of questions addressed the federal government's
spending on education and its involvement in local schools, which
country the respondent thought did the best job of educating its
children, and what single change would bring about the greatest
improvement in the American education system. Respondents rated the
public schools in their community and commented on the most important
problems the schools were facing, the quality of local teachers,
whether teachers were respected and paid well enough, and whether the
respondent would be willing to pay more taxes to support local
schools. Additional topics addressed the basic responsibilities of
elementary and high schools, the best ways to evaluate children's
progress in school, and whether proposed changes would help or hurt
the education of students. Other questions asked respondents about
their own educational experiences, and what career they would choose
for their child. Respondents who had children currently attending
elementary or high school were asked about the type of school their
children attended, the frequency and type of interaction they had with
their children's teachers, the amount of time spent helping their
child with homework, their familiarity with their children's
textbooks, and whether they would be willing to run for local school
board. Demographic information includes age, race, sex, education
level, household income, and political party affiliation.

This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys
that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other
political and social issues. This survey, administered to youths aged
13-17, solicited opinions of President Bill Clinton and his handling
of the presidency. The teens were also asked to comment on the
greatest problem facing their generation, racial problems in their
schools and communities, the presence of sexual activity, alcohol,
drugs, and tobacco in the school system, and how frequently they read
the newspaper and watched television. A series of questions covered
the topic of sex, specifically, whether respondents believed it was
okay to engage in premarital sex, whether condoms should be
distributed in school, and how they felt about same-sex relations. In
addition, respondents were asked about their relationships with their
parents, including the ability of their parents to relate to them,
pressures placed on them by their parents, how often a parent was
actually in the home with them, and whether they communicated with
their parents about difficult topics, including sex and the use of
alcohol and drugs. A series of questions addressed issues and problems
in the student's school. Topics covered cheating, teenage drivers,
part-time employment, the use of cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana,
computer access, beeper/pager ownership, body-piercing, sex, tattoos,
suicide, HIV virus/AIDS, firearms, racial relations, sexual
harassment, and homosexuality. Respondents were asked for their
opinions on trying juveniles as adults in the legal system and on the
alleged affair between President Clinton and former White House intern
Monica Lewinsky. Respondents were also asked about their self-image,
their involvement in extracurricular and volunteer activities, whether
they received an allowance, whether they played a musical instrument,
and what their post-high school plans were. Background information on
respondents includes age, race, ethnicity, sex, political party,
religion, number of siblings, demographics of the school attended,
grade in school, and the education level, marital status, and
employment status of the parents.

The United States Census Bureau conducts a Census of Governments every five years -- in years ending in "2" or "7" -- to collect information about governments in the United States. The Government Organization branch of the 1992 Census of Governments describes the organization and activities of local governments. The 1992 Local Government Directory Survey covered all county, municipal, town or township, school district, and special district governments that met the Census Bureau criteria for independent governments. The counts of local governments reflect those in operation on January 1, 1992. This collection includes three parts, each including information regarding a different type of government: (1) general purpose governments, (2) special district governments, and (3) school district governments (including dependent school systems but not Education Service Agencies). The data include information on various codes used to identify the government unit, its name, population in 1990, types of public services provided, or functions of special districts, political organization of general purpose governments as well as a detailed accounting of race and gender of elected and appointed officials. Special districts data provide information on area served, revenue powers, and functions, in addition to detailing race and gender counts of governing body members. School data provides enrollment information, number of schools, educational levels, area served, and a detailed accounting of race and gender of elected and appointed officials.

The 2007 Chicago Regional Household Travel Inventory (CRHTI) is a comprehensive study of the demographic and travel behavior characteristics of residents in the greater Chicago area. This survey entailed the collection of activity and travel information for all household members regardless of age during a randomly assigned 24-hour or 48-hour period. The survey relied on the willingness of regional households to (1) provide demographic information about the household, its members and its vehicles and (2) have all household members record all travel and activity for the travel period, including address
information for all locations visited, trip purpose, mode, and travel times. Demographic variables include gender, age, employment status, household size, whether household members were students on their given travel day, household income, and whether respondents had a valid drivers license at the time of the survey.

This study was a joint project of ten major United States
cities participating in the Urban Observatory Program: Atlanta,
Albuquerque, Baltimore, Boston, Denver, Kansas City, Kansas, Kansas
City, Missouri, Milwaukee, Nashville, and San Diego. The survey
focused on citizens' perceptions of the problems of urban
life. Citizens' attitudes toward local government services and their
opinions about local problems in the areas of schooling, housing,
public transportation, controlled drugs, law and order, and taxes were
assessed in all ten cities. Information on the socioeconomic status
of the respondents, and on household composition was also
elicited. Demographic data include sex, age, marital status, race,
ethnicity, birthplace, level of education, and family income. Each
city may be analyzed separately or may be treated as an integral part
of the comparative study.

This study was based on crossnational surveys conducted in
five countries -- Germany, Italy, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and the
United States. Information was obtained from 955 respondents in
Germany, 995 respondents in Italy, 1,008 respondents in
Mexico, 963 respondents in the United Kingdom, and 970
respondents in the United States. The interviews focused on the
respondents' basic political attitudes with emphasis on political
partisanship, political socialization, and attitudes toward specific
institutions as well as the political system and culture as a
whole. Specific information was collected on respondents' political
awareness and feelings of political efficacy and attitudes toward
bureaucracy, police, political parties, campaigning, and various
levels of government, as well as toward institutions such as school,
family, and place of work. The number and types of organizations to
which the respondents belonged were also recorded. Demographic data
cover age, sex, race, marital status, number of children, religious
preference, income, and socioeconomic status.

This study surveyed leaders and nonleaders in four central
cities of independent metropolitan areas of Wisconsin: Madison,
Kenosha, Racine, and Green Bay. The interviews were conducted
immediately following the April 1962 local elections. A total of 1,364
nonleaders were interviewed: 458 from Racine, 330 from Kenosha, 305
from Green Bay, and 271 from Madison. The numbers of leaders
interviewed were 135 in Racine, 120 in Kenosha, 110 in Green Bay, and
124 in Madison. The leaders sample included both formal and informal
leaders. Approximately 30 informal leaders were identified and
interviewed in each city. Questions covered the respondents' feelings
about their communities, length of residence, sources of information
about local politics (newspapers, magazines, newscasts), ability to
identify local officials, and activism in local politics. The
respondents were also asked to identify major problems facing their
communities and to assess which groups or individuals were working to
solve these problems and which ones were blocking efforts at a
solution. Several questions solicited the respondents' evaluations of
their local school systems. Respondents were asked which local
services they would cut if a budget reduction were necessary and which
ones they would like to see improved. Other questions covered the
respondents' sense of alienation, efficacy, and civic duty. With
respect to state and national politics, respondents were asked to rank
national leaders and to indicate whether they voted in state and
national elections and for whom they voted. Several variables measured
the respondents' economic orientation, international orientation,
tolerance, racial attitudes, authoritarianism, and
pro-McCarthyism. The respondents were also questioned about party
identification and whether this had changed. Information was collected
on the respondents' marital status, number of children, age,
education, religion, occupation, income, property ownership, race, and
the place of birth of parents and grandparents. In addition, the
respondent was asked about social contacts, both with people and with
organizations.

and age married, the status of the marriage, number of children born
in each marriage, marital satisfaction, relationship with spouse,
causes of disagreement with spouse, and household roles. Pertaining to
occupation, respondents answered questions about job training and
requirements, job satisfaction, and job discrimination. They also
provided their opinions about how work had affected their
relationships with their children and spouse. For the Recreation
Survey (1982), respondents were queried about attending professional
events, participating in sports and household activities, visiting
particular recreational locations, owning recreational, electronic, or
entertainment equipment, and playing a musical instrument. In
addition, the survey posed questions about membership in a group or
organization, vacations, religious behaviors, and books or magazines
read. Respondents also provided their opinion about gender attributes
pertaining to societal roles. Major demographic themes that may appear
in one or more of the surveys include age, gender, race, birthplace,
occupation and employment, income, social class, education, marital
status, religious preference, number of friends or relatives in the
city, number and ages of children or siblings, and household
composition, as well as the topic of organizational memberships,
political affiliation, time spent per day watching movies or
television, and number of newspaper or magazine subscriptions. For the
Community Survey (1978, 1999), Kinship Survey (1978), Neighborhood
Survey (1978), and Women's Occupational Survey (1978), in addition to
occupation, the data may also include Duncan Socioeconomic Index
(SEI), Siegel Prestige, or industry classification codes.

This dataset includes test scores for over 40,000 students
in 175 Irish primary schools that were selected and randomly assigned
to a variety of testing treatments as part of a four-year study. The
goal of this research effort was to assess the effects of standardized
tests and test results on teachers, students, and parents, as well as
on school policy. Northern Ireland was chosen because of its developed
educational system (in which the English language is used) and its
prior lack of standardized testing. During the course of this study,
three main testing treatments were implemented in all classrooms in
each primary school: (1) no testing was done, (2) norm referenced
ability and attainment testing was done in basic curricular areas
(English, Irish, and mathematics), but pupil performance data were not
returned to the teachers, and (3) norm referenced ability and
attainment testing was done, and pupils' raw scores, percentiles, and
standard scores were returned to teachers. This dataset contains the
norm referenced test scores gathered over the course of the four-year
study for each of eight primary age-group cohorts. Parts 1-6 contain
scores from students who were in grades 1-6, respectively, during the
first year of the study. Part 7 contains scores from students who were
in grade 2 in the fourth (last) year of the study, and Part 8 contains
the scores from students who were in grade 3 during the last year of
the study. Background variables for each student (e.g., treatment
group, school type, sex served by school, location of school, size of
school, type of administration of school, school identification
number, and student's sex) are also included.

This survey focused on the influence of education on
respondents' attitudes toward a variety of issues, including crime,
city services, police protection, neighborhoods, health-care coverage,
taxes, public schools, the North American Free Trade Agreement
(NAFTA), and government involvement in correcting class, gender, and
race disparities. The survey also sought respondents' opinions on
issues such as race relations, discrimination against women, racial
balance in schools, laws against interracial marriages, housing
discrimination law, racial profiling, and voting for a Black
presidential candidate. Respondents were questioned on the comparative
differences between Blacks and Whites in types of jobs held, housing,
and level of income, and why Blacks were worse off than whites, the
effects on property values of Blacks moving into White neighborhoods,
and the high rate of unemployment and crime among Blacks as compared
to Whites. Also explored were respondents' feelings about the death
penalty, immigrants, other races, poor people, minority groups,
affirmative action, homosexuality, television violence, censorship,
and abortion. Questions on the respondents' educational background
covered the types of elementary and secondary schools they attended
and grades earned, level of education and degrees earned, and types of
college(s) attended. Additional information gathered by the survey
includes respondents' duration of residence in the tri-county area and
at the current residence, place of previous residence, employment
status, social class stratification, religious denomination, party
preference, participation in social and political life, and knowledge
of current affairs. Demographic information includes respondents'
gender, age, marital status, race, and ethnicity.

The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study (ECLS) program
provides national data on children's status at birth and at various
points thereafter, children's transition to nonparental care, early
education programs, and school, and children's experiences and growth
through the fifth grade. ECLS also provides data to test hypotheses
about the effects of a wide range of family, school, community, and
individual variables on children's development, early learning, and
early performance in school. The Kindergarten Class of 1998-1999
addresses four key issues: (1) school readiness, (2) children's
transitions to kindergarten, first grade, and beyond, (3) the
relationship between children's kindergarten experience and their
elementary school performance, and (4) children's growth in math,
reading, and general knowledge (i.e., science and social studies), and
their progress through elementary school.

The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten
Class of 1998-1999 (ECLS-K) focuses on children's early school
experiences beginning with kindergarten through fifth grade. It is a
nationally representative sample that collects information from
children, their families, their teachers, and their schools. ECLS-K
provides data about the effects of a wide range of family, school,
community, and individual variables on children's cognitive, social,
emotional, and physical development, their early learning and early
performance in school, as well as their home environment, home
educational practices, school environment, classroom environment,
classroom curriculum, and teacher qualifications.
With a few exceptions, the fifth grade data file contains all data
collected from parents, children, teachers, or schools in the base
year (fall and spring), first grade (fall and spring), third grade
(spring), and fifth grade (spring) data collections. To streamline the
file, however, the data from the household rosters that listed all
household members, their relationship to the sampled child, and
selected other characteristics are not included in the file. The
composite variables describing critical household roster-based
information, such as the children's family structure and selected
characteristics of the family members, have been retained on the
file.
Specific subjects covered by the variables in this data file
include parent/child gender, parent/child race, family background,
socioeconomic status, household income, parents' education level, and
parents' employment and marital status. Other variables include type
of childcare and childcare arrangements, the child's math, science,
and reading scores, the child's learning problems and autism, as well
as the child's diet issues, food security, and school food service.
Variables about teachers include age, race, background,
qualifications, job satisfaction, their level of impact on curriculum
and policy, and time spent on classroom activities and specific
subjects. Other variables include diversity of classroom students,
parent-teacher discussions, family participation in school events and
fundraising, whether the child's school has bars on the windows and
doors, fire alarms, sprinklers, and fire extinguishers, the presence
of school graffiti, as well as bus/transportation issues.

The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study Kindergarten Class of 1998-1999, Kindergarten-Eighth Grade Full Sample includes the kindergarten, first, third, fifth, and eighth grade data collections for the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 1998-1999 (ECLS-K). Unlike the public-use longitudinal files released in previous rounds, this file contains all data for all ECLS-K sample cases that have been publicly released in any of the rounds. Thus, it can be used for within-year (cross-sectional) analyses of any round of data collection and cross-year (longitudinal) analyses of combinations of rounds. It focuses on children's early school experiences beginning with kindergarten through eighth grade. It is a nationally representative sample that collects information from children, their families, their teachers, and their schools. ECLS-K provides data about the effects of a wide range of family, school, community, and individual variables on children's cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development, their early learning and early performance in school, as well as their home environment, home educational practices, school environment, classroom environment, classroom curriculum, and teacher qualifications. The list below summarizes each wave of this study.
1998-1999 (the Kindergarten year-Rounds 1 and 2): The ECLS-K child assessments, parent interviews, and teacher questionnaires were conducted in the fall. Children, parents, and teachers participated again in the spring, along with school administrators.
1999-2000 (the First grade year-Rounds 3 and 4): The ECLS-K conducted child assessments and parent interviews for a 30 percent sub-sample in the fall. The full sample of children, parents, teachers, and school administrators participated in the spring.
2002 (the Third grade year-Round 5): The ECLS-K conducted child assessments and parent interviews in the spring. Teachers and school administrators completed questionnaires.
2004 (the Fifth grade year-Round 6): The ECLS-K conducted child assessments and parent interviews in the spring. Teachers and school administrators completed questionnaires.

The Equality of Educational Opportunity Study (EEOS), also
known as the "Coleman Study," was commissioned by the United States
Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in 1966 to assess the
availability of equal educational opportunities to children of
different race, color, religion, and national origin. This study was
conducted in response to provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
and serves as an example of the use of a social survey as an
instrument of national policy-making. The EEOS consists of test scores
and questionnaire responses obtained from first-, third-, sixth-,
ninth-, and twelfth-grade students, and questionnaire responses from
teachers and principals. These data were obtained from a national
sample of schools in the United States. Data on students include age,
gender, race and ethnic identity, socioeconomic background, attitudes
toward learning, education and career goals, and racial attitudes.
Scores on teacher-administered standardized academic tests are also
included. These scores reflect performance on tests assessing ability
and achievement in verbal skills, nonverbal associations, reading
comprehension, and mathematics. Data on teachers and principals
include academic discipline, assessment of verbal facility, salary,
education and teaching experience, and attitudes toward race.

This survey, conducted in January and February of 1989,
examined teachers' opinions on health and cancer education in schools
of 12 member countries of the European Community (Belgium, Denmark,
France, Germany, Greece, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg,
the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain). A total of 2,750 teachers
(approximately 240 from each country and 66 only from Luxembourg), of
which roughly a third were primary school teachers and two thirds were
secondary teachers, were interviewed face-to-face by professional
interviewers during January-February 1989. Those interviewed were
asked whether they discussed health matters, especially cancer, drugs,
and AIDS, and if so with whom. The survey also collected information
on respondents' views about causes of cancer and prevention methods
they taught at school. Some questions focused on organizing health
education in schools: who was responsible for health education in
schools, the role of teachers versus doctors and parents regarding
health education, and smoking rules for teachers and pupils. Another
subject of study was the European code against cancer. Respondents
were asked how familiar they were with the code, how well-known it
was, how well accepted it was, and how they viewed its
effectiveness. Respondents also expressed their opinions regarding
whether the European Community or its members had the right to deal
with cancer prevention. Also investigated were respondents' interest
in different health programs, opinions about the best educational
materials, and how well informed they were about health and cancer
prevention. Background information includes respondents' age, gender,
subject taught, years of teaching, type of school they taught in, and
number of classes and pupils they had, as well as general information
about their schools.

Bully-Proofing Your School (BPYS) was a school-based intervention program
designed to reduce bullying and school violence. The BPYS program differed from other anti-bullying programs by providing teachers with a specific curriculum
that could be implemented in the classroom. The purpose of this study was to
evaluate the BPYS program at the elementary school and middle school level.
The BPYS outcome evaluation consisted of school climate surveys administered to elementary school students (Part 1), middle school students (Part 2), and staff (Part 3) in both treatment and comparison schools. The design of the data collection for the study was a repeated cross-sectional design. The evaluation of BPYS took place over five years. In the spring semesters of 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006, all participating schools completed a school climate survey. The researchers collected 4,136 completed elementary school surveys (Part 1), 1,627 completed middle school surveys (Part 2), and 1,209 completed staff surveys (Part 3). For the elementary and middle school students, the mode of data collection was an in-class (group administration) anonymous self-completed survey. For the 1,209 staff surveys (Part 3), the mode of data collection was a mail questionnaire. Part 1 variables include sociodemographic and general school information items, school climate variables, school safety variables, and home and family environment variables. Also included is a filter variable which can be used to select the 3,497 cases that were used in the original analyses. Part 2 variables include sociodemographic and general school information variables, school climate variables, school safety variables, substance use variables, home and family environment variables, variables about guns, variables on activities the respondent participated in, and school attendance variables. Part 3 variables include school and staff characteristics variables, questions about general conditions in the school, questions on how the respondent felt about other people working at the school, questions concerning the resources and participation in the school and the community, and questions regarding staff perceptions of safety at the school.

In August 2004, Texas implemented the Texas Public School
Nutrition Policy in order to promote healthier nutrition in its
schools. The new policy restricted high fat and high sugar foods,
reduced portion sizes, and phased out "deep-fat fried" foods in school
food service environments. This study evaluated the impact of that
policy by comparing National School Lunch Program (NSLP) production
records and school snack bar/a la carte line sales data before and
after the policy was implemented. Data from a number of Texas
elementary, middle, and high schools for the prepolicy 2003-2004
school year were compared with their data for the postpolicy 2004-2005
school year. Daily NSLP production records list the number of servings
of fresh fruit, canned fruit, regular vegetables, high fat vegetables
(french fries), legumes, orange juice, apple juice, grape juice, whole
milk, fat free milk, chocolate milk, strawberry milk, variety milk,
yogurt, low fat/fat free cheese, string cheese, and cube cheese served
to students. The snack bar/a la carte line data report annual sales of
candy, baked chips, regular chips, deserts, sweetened drinks, ice
cream, and water. Demographic information about the schools' school
districts include socioeconomic status (less than half of the students
eligible for free or reduced price lunches under NSLP/half or more
eligible), district size (less than 10,000 students/10,000 or more
students), and percentages of Hispanic, Black, and White students.
Demographic information about the schools, themselves, includes number
of registered students, average number of students and adults served
per day, and percent of students eligible for free or reduced price
lunches.

This data collection contains information gathered in a
longitudinal survey of a national sample of adults who were high school
sophomores in 1955 and who participated in a 1970 follow-up survey.
The 1970 study was designed to explore the determinants and long-range
consequences of individual mobility in the United States. In 1955, in
42 public high schools across the nation, 4,151 sophomores were given
aptitude and career goals questionnaires by the Educational Testing
Service (ETS). In 1970, the University of North Carolina's Institute
for Research in Social Science (IRSS) attempted to contact the sample
with mailback questionnaires. There were 2,077 usable responses. The
sophomore sample approximated a representative national sample of its
age cohort, with the following exceptions: (1) students attending
predominantly non-white institutions were excluded, (2) private
schools were excluded, (3) large-city schools tended to be
under-represented, and (4) low-ability students and school dropouts
tended to be under-represented. The mailed questionnaires included items
concerning personal data and activities, high school and college
experience (e.g., reasons for dropping out of high school, motivating
factors for attending college, and number of high school friends who
attended college), work experience (e.g., job history, hours worked,
types of occupations, and work attitudes), family background and
marriage (e.g., ethnicity, religion reared in, and highest level of
education attained by immediate family members), and finances (e.g.,
financial obligations, income, and assets), as well as a wide range of
questions on attitude and esteem (e.g., current feelings about
hometown, present community, high school, and college). Women were
asked additional questions concerning contraception, pregnancy, family
size, and attitudes toward women's roles and work.

China's dramatic economic and educational changes over the past 20 years have
stimulated concerns about the education of children in rural areas. Recent
empirical studies give evidence of growing disparities in educational
opportunities between urban and rural areas and socio-economic and geographic
inequities in basic-level educational participation within rural areas. These
studies also point to a persisting gender gap in enrollment and to the
disproportionate impact of poverty on girls' educational participation (Hannum
1998b; Zhang 1998).
This study focused on the influence of poverty on the schooling of 11
to 14 year-old children in rural Gansu, an interior province in Northwest China
characterized by high rates of rural poverty and a substantial dropout problem.
Substantively, this study was innovative in adopting an integrated
approach: it focused on the community, family, and school contexts in which
children are educated. Methodologically, the study combined
information on children's academic performance and school characteristics, with a
household-based sample that allowed examination of the academic experiences of
children who have left the education system as well as those who have persisted
in it. Finally, the project was the baseline wave for the
first large-scale, longitudinal study devoted to education and social inequality
conducted in rural China. Results of this study contribute to an understanding of basic social stratification processes and provide insights for developing intervention strategies to improve educational access and effectiveness in rural China.

Since 1982, the World Health Organization (WHO) Regional
Office for Europe has sponsored a cross-national, school-based study
of health-related attitudes and behaviors of young people. These
studies, generally known as Health Behavior in School-Aged Children
(HBSC), are based on nationally independent surveys of school-aged
children in as many as 30 participating countries. The HBSC studies
were conducted every four years since the 1985-1986 school year. The
United States was one of three countries chosen to implement the
survey out of cycle. The data available here are the results of the
United States study from the 1995-1996 school year. The study results
can be used as stand-alone data, or to compare to the other countries
involved in the international HBSC. The HBSC study has two main
objectives. The first objective is to monitor health-risk behaviors
and attitudes in youth over time to provide background and identify
targets for health promotion initiatives. The second objective is to
provide researchers with relevant information to understand and
explain the development of health attitudes and behaviors through
early adolescence. The study contains variables dealing with many
types of drugs such as tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, cocaine,
inhalants, hallucinogens, and over-the-counter medications. The study
also examines a person's health and health behaviors such as eating
habits, depression, injuries, anti-social behavior including questions
concerning bullying, fighting, using weapons, and how one deals with
anger. There are also questions concerning problems with attention
span at school and opinions about school itself.

This data collection was based on the Ten Cities Survey
of Citizen Attitudes Toward Local Government conducted under the
supervision of the Urban Observatory Program. The research for the
project was funded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development
and administered by the National League of Cities. Each Urban Observatory
network city had autonomy over the study in its area. This instructional
subset includes responses from surveys administered in four of the ten
cities: Atlanta, Boston, Baltimore, and San Diego. The four were selected
because they represented regional diversity and also because examination
of the distribution of responses suggested four rather different patterns
of citizen attitudes. Variables provide information on respondents' views
of local government and services, public officials, local schools and
racial integration, public transportation, police protection, neighborhood
safety, the uses of city funds, most urgent city problems, most problematic
groups in the city, effects of urban renewal on the city, courts, city
wages, and strikes by public employees. Other items probed respondents'
opinions of local problems in the areas of schooling, housing, public
transportation, drugs, law and order, and city taxes. Demographic items
specify age, sex, education, ethnicity, family income, home ownership,
length of stay in the city of residence, and interests in politics.

The Jewish School Study was undertaken to determine the advantages and disadvantages of different forms of Jewish education, how Jewish day schools are formed and organized, how Jewish schools contribute to the maintenance of continuity of a
400-year tradition, how adolescent Jews develop their identity, and what role religious education plays in this development. Questions also asked how Jewish adolescents and their parents participate in Jewish life, express their feelings about being Jewish, the role of spirituality in their lives, how they learn about Jewish life, and their relationship/ties with Israel and the Jewish people. Part 1, the Parent Survey, asked parents of students in Jewish schools about the financial costs of religious education, their religious background, Jewish religious practices of their household, as well as their own religious beliefs and spirituality. The survey also sought answers to questions on the parents' reasons for their choice of Jewish school, how involved and in what ways they were involved in their child's school and education, their involvement in the Jewish community, their level of knowledge on various subjects related to Judaism, and their opinions on their own parenting. Other information collected included marital status, income, family status, family origins, education, and employment. Part 2, the Student Survey, asked students about their religious background, the religious practices and experiences in their household, and their own Jewish practices. Students were then asked about how they spent their free time on Saturdays and weekdays, how they and their parents felt about being Jewish, and what types of rules their parents had for them. Additionally, students were queried about their values, friends, and future plans; knowledge of various subjects relating to Judaism; and their opinions of their school, teachers, and their own academic performance. Background information collected included gender, grade in school, name and types of schools attended, household composition, language spoken in the home, and parents' education and employment. Part 3, the Teacher Survey, asked teachers about the settings they worked in and the salary and benefits of those positions. Respondents also were asked about the classes they taught, the use of various teaching methods and media, and their roles and responsibilities. The survey also asked the teachers about their training and professional development, their perceptions and attitudes about their school, parental involvement, resources and facilities, and school goals. Additionally, teachers were asked about their religious background, Jewish religious practices of their own households, and their personal religious beliefs and spirituality. Background information collected included type of postsecondary education, gender, age, place of birth, marital status, income, and future career plans.

This survey was conducted by the National Youth Gang
Intervention and Suppression Program. The primary goals of the program
were to assess the national scope of the gang crime problem, to
identify promising programs and approaches for dealing with the
problem, to develop prototypes from the information gained about the
most promising programs, and to provide technical assistance for the
development of gang intervention and suppression programs nationwide.
The survey was designed to encompass every agency in the country that
was engaged in or had recently engaged in organized responses specifically
intended to deal with gang crime problems. Cities were screened with
selection criteria including the presence and recognition of a youth
gang problem and the presence of a youth gang program as an organized
response to the problem. Respondents were classified into several major
categories and subcategories: law enforcement (mainly police,
prosecutors, judges, probation, corrections, and parole), schools
(subdivided into security and academic personnel), community, county,
or state planners, other, and community/service (subdivided into youth
service, youth and family service/treatment, comprehensive crisis
intervention, and grassroots groups). These data include variables
coded from respondents' definitions of the gang, gang member, and gang
incident. Also included are respondents' historical accounts of the
gang problems in their areas. Information on the size and scope of the
gang problem and response was also solicited.

This special topic poll, fielded February 7-12, 1983, is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. The focus on this data collection was the quality of public schools. Respondents were asked about the most important problems facing the public schools in their community, the quality of local public school teachers, community spending on public schools, and possible cost-saving measures. Several questions asked about the type of education respondents had received and how it compared to the education children received today, as well as the relevance of the subject matter taught in public schools. Opinions were also sought on proposed ways of maintaining discipline in public schools, including instituting a dress code and physical punishment. Information was also collected on whether respondents had a child who attended a local elementary or high school in the past three years, the type of school their child attended, and whether anyone in the household was employed by the local school system. Respondents were asked about their choice of school for their children if cost were not a factor and whether they favored school vouchers and tuition tax credits for children attending private schools.
Demographic variables include sex, race, age, household income, education level, religious background, and whether they had a child under the age of 18.

thought the efforts to redevelop the site were going too quickly, too
slowly, or just the right pace. Respondents were also asked to rate
the New York City economy and if they thought it was getting better or
worse. Questions respondents were asked concerning New York City
schools included whether they were satisfied with the public school
system, what type of school the respondents' children attended, and
their opinion regarding the amount of influence the Bloomberg
administration had had on the improvement of test scores in the New
York public schools. Respondents were asked to compare neighborhood
safety at the time of the survey to that of four years previously,
what their opinion was on race relations in the New York City area,
and if they approved or disapproved of the way Mayor Bloomberg was
handling the redevelopment of downtown Manhattan. Other general topics
included the economy, crime, security, and public transportation.

This special topic poll is part of a continuing series of
monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and a
range of other political and social issues. The study was conducted in
part to assess respondents' opinions and concerns about the state of New
York City under the administration of Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Residents
of the city were asked to give their opinions of Mayor Bloomberg and his
handling of education, crime, the budget, the economy, and overall
quality of life issues in New York City, as well as their views on what
issue(s) should garner the most attention. Their opinions were also
sought on New York City Schools Chancellor Joel Klein, including their
satisfaction with the quality of public schools in the city. A series
of questions addressed Bloomberg's plan to balance the budget. Questions
focused on respondents' views regarding the severity of the budget
problems, the cuts in services and tax increases already made, and
whether the fire and police departments should have been included in
those cuts. Respondents' opinions were sought on the progress made by
the Bloomberg administration in the following areas: improving
neighborhood public schools, keeping New York City safe from crime,
helping the city recover from the 2001 terrorist attacks, creating
affordable housing, and balancing the city's budget. Those polled
answered questions about their concern regarding another terrorist
attack in New York City and whether the city would be prepared, the
proposals for rebuilding at the World Trade Center site including their
preferred plan, the speed of the redevelopment of the site, and whether
Bloomberg or Governor George Pataki should have more influence.
Respondents were asked whether their encounters with panhandlers
bothered them, whether they had seen more homeless people and/or people
using/selling drugs in recent months, whether the city seemed cleaner or
dirtier than one year ago, and whether they approved of the new smoking
law banning smoking in almost all bars and restaurants in New York City.
Additional questions probed the seriousness of the following issues:
affordability and availability of housing, noise, unemployment, and
whether Blacks and Whites were treated fairly by the New York City
Police Department. Background information on respondents includes age,
gender, political party, political orientation, voter registration and
participation history, education, religion, marital status, employment
status, Hispanic descent, race, use of tobacco products, crime
victimization history, length of residence in New York City, borough of
residence, household income, children in household and whether they were
enrolled in public, private, or parochial school.

During the spring of 1965, these two datasets were collected
in conjunction with the Student-Parent Socialization Study, 1965. The
principals and the most relevant social studies teachers in the 97
schools used in the sampling of the high school students comprise these
two datasets. With these data the investigator sought to explore the
effects of school-related factors on the formation of citizenship
perspectives among high school students. The questionnaire administered
to the teachers covered the areas of methods and materials used in
courses, job satisfaction, political values and orientations, attitudes
toward students and teacher-student relationships, work time devoted to
social studies, and community political roles of teachers. The
questionnaire administered to the principals focused on political
values, attitudes toward students, and handling controversial issues in
class. Social Studies teachers: 317 respondents weighted to 385, 10
cards of data per respondent, and 325 variables. Principals: 97
respondents weighted to 118, 7 cards of data per respondent, and 240

The Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods
(PHDCN) was a large-scale, interdisciplinary study of how families,
schools, and neighborhoods affect child and adolescent development.
One component of the PHDCN was the Longitudinal Cohort Study, which
was a series of coordinated longitudinal studies that followed over
6,000 randomly selected children, adolescents, and young adults, and
their primary caregivers over time to examine the changing
circumstances of their lives, as well as the personal characteristics,
that might lead them toward or away from a variety of antisocial
behaviors. Numerous measures were administered to respondents to
gauge various aspects of human development, including individual
differences, as well as family, peer, and school influences. The
School and Day Care Screen obtained information regarding the
subject's current educational situation, parental involvement in
school and expectations for the subject, and the characteristics of
the childcare setting and provider. This Wave 2 instrument asks some
of the same questions which were asked in the Wave 1 version, PROJECT
ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO NEIGHBORHOODS (PHDCN): SCHOOL SCREEN,

parental involvement at school and educational expectations for the
subject, history of special classifications of the subject,
after-school activities of the subject, and the absence or presence of
certain cognitive stimuli, including varied learning experiences and

This study of 1,194 adults in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb
counties in Detroit in 1975 was part of an extensive research project
designed to produce important theoretical and operationally useful
research results on the urban environment and quality of life.
Respondents were either the head, or the spouse of the head, of
household. The sample provided adequate representation of both Detroit
itself and the surrounding area, and of racial and economic subgroups.
It was taken from the geographic area defined as the 1971 Detroit SMSA,
which included Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties. Data were gathered
on population, housing, and neighborhood characteristics, including
percentagized data on age groups, unemployment rate, labor force,
occupancy and vacancy rate, tenureship, single family ownership, ownership
or rental by racial groups, crime rate, injuries, and ejection.
Respondents were asked about the public transportation system, schools,
recreational opportunities, public safety, housing, and sanitation in
their neighborhood. Other items probed respondents' feelings about their
neighborhood, work, the Detroit tri-county area in relative terms,
preferred place to live in the United States and reasons for their choice,
future unemployment in the Detroit tri-county area, city officials, taxes
and the variety of local services taxes were used for, and use of violence
to effect social change. Additional items probed respondents opinions
about private schools, quality of public schools, the police, neighborhood
problems, and integrated neighborhoods, as well as recreational activities.
Also probed were respondents' satisfaction with their life, time spent
with family, marriage, housing, government's recreational facilities
for children in their neighborhood, and the quality and price of foods
in supermarkets. Background items specify age, date of birth, education,
race, shades of skin color, marital status, personality type, family
income, employment, religion, labor union membership, previous residence,
household size and composition, home ownership, and length of stay in
neighborhood.

The purpose of this research was to develop an accurate description of the current involvement of law enforcement in schools. The researchers administered a school survey (Part 1) as well as a law enforcement survey (Part 2 and Part 3). The school survey was designed specifically for this research, but did incorporate items from previous surveys, particularly the School Survey on Crime and Safety and the National Assessment of School Resource Officer Programs Survey of School Principals. The school surveys were then sent out to a total of 3,156 school principals between January 2002 and May 2002. The researchers followed Dillman's mail survey design and received a total of 1,387 completed surveys. Surveys sent to the schools requested that each school identify their primary and secondary law enforcement providers. Surveys were then sent to those identified primary law enforcement agencies (Part 2) and secondary law enforcement agencies (Part 3) in August 2002. Part 2 and Part 3 each contain 3,156 cases which matches the original sample size of schools. For Part 2 and Part 3, a total of 1,508 law enforcement surveys were sent to both primary and secondary law enforcement agencies. The researchers received 1,060 completed surveys from the primary law enforcement agencies (Part 2) and 86 completed surveys from the secondary law enforcement agencies (Part 3). Part 1, School Survey Data, included a total of 309 variables pertaining to school characteristics, type of law enforcement relied on by the schools, school resource officers, frequency of public law enforcement activities, teaching activities of law enforcement officers, frequency of private security activities, safety plans and meetings with law enforcement, and crime/disorder in schools. Part 2, Primarily Relied Upon Law Enforcement Agency Survey Data, and Part 3, Secondarily Relied Upon Law Enforcement Agency Survey Data, each contain 161 variables relating to school resource officers, frequency of public law enforcement activities, teaching activities of law enforcement agencies, safety plans and meetings with schools, and crime/disorder in schools reported to police according to primary/secondary law enforcement.

This data collection contains information obtained from a
total of 31,373 students, 23,895 teachers, and 15,894 principals in
the United States in 1976-1977 in the Safe School Study, mandated by
the United States Congress under Public Law 93-380 (Section 825). The
legislation was in response to growing public concern regarding
incidents of violence and vandalism occurring in the nation's
schools. The objectives of this study were to determine the frequency
and seriousness of crime in elementary and secondary schools in the
United States, the number and location of schools affected by crime,
the cost of replacement or repair of objects damaged by school crime,
and possible methods of prevention. The legislation specified that the
study was to be conducted by the National Institute of Education
(NIE). The NIE designed the study in three phases, and data collection
was carried out by the Research Triangle Institute, with computer work
supervised by Sheldon Laube of C.M. Leinwand Associates. The primary
data for the study were collected in two concurrent sample surveys:
Phase I and Phase II. Phase I, a mail survey, asked more than 4,000
elementary and secondary school principals to report in detail on the
incidence of illegal or disruptive activities in their schools. Nine
one-month reporting periods between February 1976 and January 1977,
excluding summer months, were assigned to participating schools on a
random basis. Parts 2 and 11 contain data gathered from school
principals in this phase. In Phase II, field representatives conducted
on-site and follow-up surveys of junior and senior high school
students and teachers in public secondary schools. They were asked to
report any experiences they might have had as victims of violence or
theft in the reporting month. In addition, they provided information
about themselves, their schools, and their communities. Also, the
principals in this sample were asked to keep a record of incidents
during the reporting month, including robberies, attacks, and
thefts. They also supplied information about their schools'
characteristics and crime prevention methods. Parts 7, 16, 19, 24, 29,
30, 35, 39, 43, and 47 contain the data gathered in this phase. Part
18 contains the combined data gathered in the Principal
questionnaires, utilizing both Phase I and Phase II samples. Part 51
is a file created to supply community information about each Phase II
school. Most of its information was extracted from the 1970 Census,
but it also includes weather and unemployment data. Phase III involved
a more intensive qualitative study of 10 schools, most which had had a
history of problems with crime and violence, but which had improved
dramatically in a short time. Some crimes explored were vandalism,
theft, personal violence, and verbal abuse. The place of occurrence
and characteristics of each offender were also examined. The 10 case
studies created as a result of Phase III can be read in the primary

This study surveyed board members of the public schools
included in the STUDENT-PARENT SOCIALIZATION STUDY, 1965 (ICPSR 7286)
(Part 1) and superintendents of the same school districts (Part 3).
These original samples were supplemented with members of 13 big city
boards of education and the superintendents of those districts in
order to provide complementarity with AMERICAN NATIONAL ELECTION
STUDY, 1968 (ICPSR 7281). Shorter versions of the questionnaire were
administered to the supplementary samples, and responses of both the
regular and the supplementary samples to these common questions are
presented in Parts 2 and 4. Variables probed respondents' attitudes
toward their jobs, personnel policies, and the relationships between
the school district and the community. Demographic data include sex,
race, level of education, college attended, family income, home
ownership, and political preference. Information is also included on
the characteristics of the school districts covered by the survey.

This study was designed to explore school culture and
climate and their effects on school disorder, violence, and academic
performance on two levels. At the macro level of analysis, this
research examined the influences of sociocultural, crime, and school
characteristics on aggregate-level school violence and academic
performance measures. Here the focus was on understanding community,
family, and crime compositional effects on disruption and violence in
Philadelphia schools. This level included Census data and crime rates
for the Census tracts where the schools were located (local data), as
well as for the community of residence of the students (imported data)
for all 255 schools within the Philadelphia School District. The
second level of analysis, the intermediate level, included all of the
variables measured at the macro level, and added school organizational
structure and school climate, measured with survey data, as mediating
variables. Part 1, Macro-Level Data, contains arrest and offense data
and Census characteristics, such as race, poverty level, and household
income, for the Census tracts where each of the 255 Philadelphia
schools is located and for the Census tracts where the students who
attend those schools reside. In addition, this file contains school
characteristics, such as number and race of students and teachers,
student attendance, average exam scores, and number of suspensions for
various reasons. For Part 2, Principal Interview Data, principals from
all 42 middle schools in Philadelphia were interviewed on the number
of buildings and classrooms in their school, square footage and
special features of the school, and security measures. For Part 3,
teachers were administered the Effective School Battery survey and
asked about their job satisfaction, training opportunities,
relationships with principals and parents, participation in school
activities, safety measures, and fear of crime at school. In Part 4,
students were administered the Effective School Battery survey and
asked about their attachment to school, extracurricular activities,
attitudes toward teachers and school, academic achievement, and fear
of crime at school. Part 5, Student Victimization Data, asked the same
students from Part 4 about their victimization experiences, the
availability of drugs, and discipline measures at school. It also
provides self-reports of theft, assault, drug use, gang membership,
and weapon possession at school.

The School District Data Book (SDDB) is an education
database and information system. It contains an extensive set of data
on children, their households, and the nation's school systems. Under
the sponsorship of the National Center for Education Statistics, the
Bureau of the Census has produced special tabulation files using the
basic record files of the 1990 Census of Population and Housing by
school district. These tabulation files contain aggregated data
describing attributes of children and households in school districts.
Data are organized by seven types of tabulation records: (1)
characteristics of all households, (2) characteristics of all persons,
(3) characteristics of households with children, (4) characteristics
of parents living with children, (5) children's household
characteristics, (6) children's parents' characteristics, and (7)
children's own characteristics.

The Social Capital and Children's Development data were collected in a study of the causal effects of social capital on levels and inequalities of children's social and cognitive development during the early elementary years. The study included 52 schools in Phoenix and San Antonio, including 3,084 first graders and their families, and over 200 teachers, with half the schools randomly selected for the intervention and half serving as controls. Children from low-income Latino families were a special focus of the study. The experimental design of this study allowed for testing of the causal role of social capital. Social capital here refers to trust and shared expectations embedded in social networks of parents, teachers, and children. For young children, social capital operates primarily through their relationships with their parents, enhancing development through mechanisms of social support and social control. The research design was experimental: social capital was manipulated through a well-tested randomized intervention, Families and Schools Together (FAST), that enhanced social capital among parents, teachers, and children through an intensive after-school program and a 2-year follow-up program. FAST is intended to reduce parental isolation, enhance family engagement with schools, and strengthen family functioning; that is, to increase social capital between families and schools, among families, and within families to improve children's education and life-long outcomes. Key aspects of child development were assessed, including (a) social skills and problem behavior from standardized behavioral ratings by parents and teachers, and (b) grade retention, attendance rates, and third-grade reading and mathematics scores from school records. Social capital was measured with repeated surveys of teachers and parents that address the extent of social networks, parent involvement, trust, and shared expectations among parents, between parents and schools, and between parents and children. Demographic variables of this study include native language, years in the United States, date of birth/age, race/ethnicity, gender, and household composition.
Additional information about FAST can be found on the Families and Schools Together Web site.

This data collection consists of 161 selected social,
demographic, and educational datasets for France in the period 1801-1897.
The data were collected from published reports of three national
statistical series: (1) National Censuses, (2) Vital Statistics, and
(3) Primary Education. This project was supported by grants from the
National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Science Foundation.
The National Census data were derived from the quinquennial population
censuses of France from 1801 to 1896 and were obtained from the
Statistique Generale de la France. The data provide detailed social
and economic information for the period 1851 to 1896. The data for
1801-1851 are less rich in subject matter coverage but do present some
basic information on population characteristics. The National Census
data in general describe the population, including the composition of
the population by categories of age, sex, place of birth, marital status,
religion, place of residence, and occupation. There is also some limited
information on migration, transportation and communication, housing, and
families. A large segment of the census data pertains to occupations of
the population, specifying job classifications within professions, as well
as information on non-employed household members that were dependent on
employees in the various industries, in addition to enumerations of persons
employed in various professions and trades. The Vital Statistics data
files contain annual vital statistics for the French population. These
data were obtained from two printed series, MOUVEMENT DE LA POPULATION
(1801-1868), and STATISTIQUE ANNUELLE (1869-1897). The basic variables
included in the vital statistics datasets record births, deaths, and
marriages in France. Detailed cross-tabulations of these demographic
indicators are presented for births, tabulated by sex, month, legitimacy
status, and characteristics of the parents, and deaths, categorized by age
and previous marital status of the partners. Additional cross-tabulations
are provided for variables such as divorces, passports issued, medical
personnel and hospitals, and a literacy indicator (signing of marriage
certificates). The Primary Education data files provide information on
primary schools and were obtained from the Statistique de l'enseignement
Primaire. The data obtained from the series basically cover the period
1829-1897, although some recapitulative information for earlier
years is also presented. The main focus of the data in this series is on
primary schools, classes and buildings, enrollment, teachers, sources of
funding and expenditure, and academic proficiency of the pupils.
Additional information is included on literacy, teacher training (normal)
schools, school age population, and libraries. A machine-readable French
language codebook, describing the data items as well as the sources
from which they were obtained, is provided with each dataset supplied.
In addition, lists of the variables included in each dataset are included
in Parts 162-164. See the related collection, DEMOGRAPHIC, SOCIAL,
EDUCATIONAL AND ECONOMIC DATA FOR FRANCE, 1833-1925 (ICPSR 7529).

Soul of the Community was a three-year study conducted by Gallup, Inc. of the 26 Knight Foundation communities across the United States to determine the factors that attach residents to their communities and the role of community attachment in an area's economic growth and well-being. The study focused on the emotional side of the connection between residents and their communities. A random sample of at least 400 residents, aged 18 years and older, was interviewed in each community each year. In each year, oversampling obtained additional interviews in selected areas. The 2010 study also included 200 interviews among residents aged 18 to 34 in eight resident communities. Once a household within the identified area was reached, Gallup randomly selected one adult within the sampled household. Telephone interviews lasted 15 minutes (approximately 18 minutes in 2009). In 2010, the survey was available in English and Spanish, and both landlines and cell phones were called. Data include demographics, geographic information, ratings of the community, and information about the economy and work, personal wellness, and community involvement.

The Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant (SPF SIG) National Cross-Site Evaluation was conducted to evaluate the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP)'s SPF SIG initiative, which sought to: (1) prevent the onset and reduce the progression of substance abuse, including childhood and underage drinking; (2) reduce substance abuse-related problems in communities; and (3) build prevention capacity and infrastructure at the state and community levels. This cross-site evaluation included the 21 states and territories CSAP funded in FY2004 (Cohort 1) and an additional 5 States funded in Cohort 2 in FY2005 that were funded for up to 5 years to implement the SPF. The SPF is a five-step prevention planning model that requires states to: (1) conduct a statewide needs assessment, including the establishment of a State Epidemiological and Outcomes Workgroup (SEOW); (2) mobilize and build state and community capacity to address needs; (3) develop a statewide strategic plan for prevention; (4) implement evidence-based prevention, policies, and practices (EBPPP) to meet state and community needs; and (5) monitor and evaluate the implementation of their SPF SIG project.
Under contract to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) with funding provided by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), Westat, in collaboration with the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation (PIRE) and The MayaTech Corporation, implemented a multilevel, multi-method quasi-experimental design to evaluate SPF SIG's impact. The scope of the evaluation encompassed national, state, and community levels. The design included comparison conditions at both the state and community levels.
These data represent Phase I of the restricted use data release and contains extensive data on state-level implementation, community-level implementation, and state-level infrastructure, as well as other reference elements. A subsequent release (Phase II) will include state- and community-level outcomes, as well as data on community-level implementation, community-level implementation fidelity, state-level sustainability, and mediating variables.

This study is based on data collected from questionnaires administered in 1864 by the French historian Victor Duruy, who was serving as Minister of Education under Napoleon III. In Duruy's inquiry into France's secondary schools and students, leaders of French education answered more than 100 questions on a variety of subjects including curriculum, textbooks, qualifications of instructors, the relationship between public and private schools, and the public image of these schools. This file contains the portion of those data that illuminates the socioeconomic origins of students and the degree of social mobility fostered by public education. The 27,771 records in the file represent each of the students and graduates who were studied, as well as many of their fathers. Variables selected from the original questionnaire to be used specifically to analyze mobility include school identification number, departement/province number, type of school/lycee/college, student identification number, student status (current or graduate), intended occupation of student/graduate, occupation of student's father, type of curriculum at schools, occupational groupings of students, and occupational groupings of fathers.

The Survey of Consumer Attitudes and Behavior series (also known as the Surveys of Consumers) was undertaken to measure changes in consumer attitudes and expectations, to understand why such changes occur, and to evaluate how they relate to consumer decisions to save, borrow, or make discretionary purchases. The data regularly include the Index of Consumer Sentiment, the Index of Current Economic Conditions, and the Index of Consumer Expectations. Since the 1940s, these surveys have been produced quarterly through 1977 and monthly thereafter.
The surveys conducted in 2004 focused on topics such as evaluations and expectations about personal finances, employment, price changes, and the national business situation. Opinions were collected regarding respondents' appraisals of present market conditions for purchasing houses, automobiles, computers, and other durables. Also explored in this survey, were respondents' types of savings and financial investments, loan use, family income, and retirement planning. The August 2004 survey has a section exploring how informed respondents perceive themselves to be about certain science and policy issues as well as questions about science and research.
Other topics in this series typically include ownership, lease, and use of automobiles, respondents' use of personal computers at home and in the office, and respondents' familiarity with and use of the Internet. Demographic information includes ethnic origin, sex, age, marital status, and education.

This data collection was designed to assess the well-being,
attitudes, and life circumstances of American families. Interviews
were conducted with a sample of parents and their children between the
ages of 10 and 17. Children were asked questions about their
neighborhood and school, such as whether they thought their
neighborhood was a good place for children to grow up, whether they
liked school, and whether they experienced peer pressure to engage in
various behaviors. They were also asked how they spent their time
during the summer, whether they could confide in their parents, and
whether they often spent time in the house alone. Children who did not
reside with their biological parents were asked about frequency and
nature of contact with biological parents. Additional questions
concerned weekend, after-school, and family activities. Parents were
asked similar questions about their children's activities and
behavior, as well as questions about their own attitudes and concerns
regarding parenting.

The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the effectiveness of school-based anti-bullying programs in reducing school bullying. The following criteria were used for the inclusion of studies in the systematic review: the study described an evaluation of a program designed specifically to reduce school (kindergarten to high school) bullying; bullying was defined as including: physical, verbal, or psychological attack or intimidation that is intended to cause fear, distress, or harm to the victim; and an imbalance of power, with the more powerful child (or children) oppressing less powerful ones; bullying (specifically) was measured using self-report questionnaires, peer ratings, teacher ratings, or observational data; the effectiveness of the program was measured by comparing students who received it (the experimental condition) with a comparison group of students who did not receive it (the control condition). There must have been some control of extraneous variables in the evaluation by (1) randomization, or (2) pre-test measures of bulling, or (3) choosing some kind of comparable control condition; published and unpublished reports of research conducted in developed countries between 1983 and 2009 were included; and it was possible to measure the effect size. Several search strategies were used to identify 89 anti-bully studies meeting the criteria for inclusion in this review: researchers searched for the names of established researchers in the area of bullying prevention; researchers conducted a keyword search of 18 electronic databases; researchers conducted a manual search of 35 journals, either online or in print, from 1983 until the end of May 2009; and researchers sought information from key researchers on bullying and from international colleagues in the Campbell Collaboration. Studies included in the review were coded for the following key features: research design, sample size, publication date, location of the study, average age of the children, and the duration and intensity of the anti-bullying program for both the children and the teachers.

Time, Love, and Cash in Couples with Children (TLC3) consists of four waves of interviews with parents (married and nonmarried) who experienced a birth in the year 2000. Both mothers and fathers participated in semi-structured in-depth interviews individually and as a couple in each of the four waves. Interviewers were encouraged to probe and to be flexible with the order of the questions to foster a more conversational interaction. During the TLC3 interviews respondents were asked their views on parenthood, child-rearing responsibilities and expenditures, family structure and relationships, the amount of time spent with their child, their domestic responsibilities, and household income and expenditures. Questions also focused on the relationship between the parents. Respondents were asked how much time they spend together, what their thoughts were on the future of their relationship, and their general views on marriage, parenthood, and gender roles.

This study of violent incidents among middle- and
high-school students focused not only on the types and frequency of
these incidents, but also on their dynamics -- the locations, the
opening moves, the relationship between the disputants, the goals and
justifications of the aggressor, the role of third parties, and other
factors. For this study, violence was defined as an act carried out
with the intention, or perceived intention, of physically injuring
another person, and the "opening move" was defined as the action of
a respondent, antagonist, or third party that was viewed as beginning
the violent incident. Data were obtained from interviews with 70 boys
and 40 girls who attended public schools with populations that had
high rates of violence. About half of the students came from a middle
school in an economically disadvantaged African-American section of a
large southern city. The neighborhood the school served, which
included a public housing project, had some of the country's highest
rates of reported violent crime. The other half of the sample were
volunteers from an alternative high school attended by students who
had committed serious violations of school rules, largely involving
illegal drugs, possession of handguns, or fighting. Many students in
this high school, which is located in a large city in the southern
part of the Midwest, came from high-crime areas, including public
housing communities. The interviews were open-ended, with the students
encouraged to speak at length about any violent incidents in school,
at home, or in the neighborhood in which they had been involved. The
110 interviews yielded 250 incidents and are presented as text files,
Parts 3 and 4. The interview transcriptions were then reduced to a
quantitative database with the incident as the unit of analysis
(Part 1). Incidents were diagrammed, and events in each sequence were
coded and grouped to show the typical patterns and sub-patterns in
the interactions. Explanations the students offered for the
violent-incident behavior were grouped into two categories: (1)
"justifications," in which the young people accepted responsibility
for their violent actions but denied that the actions were wrong, and
(2) "excuses," in which the young people admitted the act was wrong
but denied responsibility. Every case in the incident database had at
least one physical indicator of force or violence. The
respondent-level file (Part 2) was created from the incident-level
file using the AGGREGATE procedure in SPSS. Variables in Part 1
include the sex, grade, and age of the respondent, the sex and
estimated age of the antagonist, the relationship between respondent
and antagonist, the nature and location of the opening move, the
respondent's response to the opening move, persons present during the
incident, the respondent's emotions during the incident, the person
who ended the fight, punishments imposed due to the incident, whether
the respondent was arrested, and the duration of the incident.
Additional items cover the number of times during the incident that
something was thrown, the respondent was pushed, slapped, or spanked,
was kicked, bit, or hit with a fist or with something else, was beaten
up, cut, or bruised, was threatened with a knife or gun, or a knife or
gun was used on the respondent. Variables in Part 2 include the
respondent's age, gender, race, and grade at the time of the
interview, the number of incidents per respondent, if the respondent
was an armed robber or a victim of an armed robbery, and whether the
respondent had something thrown at him/her, was pushed, slapped, or
spanked, was kicked, bit, or hit with a fist or with something else,
was beaten up, was threatened with a knife or gun, or had a knife or
gun used on him/her.

This special topic poll, conducted August 14-19, 2002, was
undertaken to assess respondents' opinions on current events in Prince
George's County, Maryland. Those polled were residents of Prince
George's County and were asked about their political party
affiliation, whether they were going to vote in the Democratic primary
election, which candidate for county executive they intended to vote
for, how they rated the candidates for county executive, and how
interested they were in general in the county executive campaign.
Respondents were also asked which candidate they supported in the
general election for governor of Maryland. Additional questions asked
respondents to rate the quality of the job performance of the current
county executive Wayne Curry and the current county schools chief Iris
Metts. Respondents were asked about how Prince George's County rated
as a place to live, the quality of life in the county, what they liked
most about the county, and what they liked least about the
county. They were also asked to indicate whether several aspects of
the county were problems, including the quality of public schools,
unemployment rate, violent crime, drugs, relations between the police
and community, the overall health of the local economy, low-income
residents moving from the District into Prince George's County, the
absence of stores specializing in exclusive, high-end merchandise,
relations between the races, transportation and roads, and problems
related to immigrants. There were also questions regarding the
quality of public schools, whether the public schools were improving,
and whether the recent dismissal of the county's elected school board
was a good idea. Respondents were asked how well whites and Blacks
got along in the county, how important it was to have an
African-American county executive, whether whites or Blacks had too
much influence in county politics, whether it would be better if the
percentage of Blacks increased, and whether it would be better if the
percentage of whites increased. Opinions were also elicited on the new
TRIM law regarding property taxes, how safe from crime they felt, how
much force county police tended to use, and whether they favored
slot-machine gambling at horse racing tracks in Maryland. Background
information on respondents includes education, marital status, race,
income, gender, how long the respondent had lived in the county,
whether they lived inside the Beltway, and whether they had children.

Robb and Oliver North and whether, given the candidates running, they
wished that other people were in the race. They were also asked
whether Charles Robb's alleged extra-marital affair and Oliver North's
prior involvement in the Iran-Contra affair would affect their vote in
the Senate race. The poll also solicited respondents' general
impressions of John Warner, Oliver North, George F. Allen, Douglas
Wilder, Donald S. Beyer, Charles Robb, Sylvia Clute, and James
Miller. Other topics included state funding for prisons, crime, and

This data collection is the third wave of an intensive study in Boston, Chicago, and San Antonio, which was initiated to assess the well-being of low-income children and families in the post-welfare reform era. The project investigates the strategies families have used to respond to reform, in terms of employment, schooling or other forms of training, residential mobility, and fertility. Central to this project is a focus on how these strategies affect children's lives, with an emphasis on their health and development as well as their need for, and use of, social services. For the first wave of the study, between March 1999 and December 1999, a random sample of approximately 2,400 households with children in low-income neighborhoods in Boston, Chicago, and San Antonio were selected for interviews. Forty percent of the families interviewed were receiving cash welfare payments at the time of the interview. Each household had a child aged 0 to 4 or aged 10 to 14 at the time of the interview. The child and the child's primary female caregiver are the focus of the study. Extensive baseline information was gathered at the initial personal interview with the caregivers, tested younger children were assessed, and older children were interviewed. All interviews were conducted in-person using a computerized instrument. The third wave of data collection took place between February 2005 and January 2006, when the focal children were aged 5 to 10 or aged 15 to 20. Between May 2005 and May 2006, interviews were conducted with the teachers of the focal children.
